I don't think I'd be able to resist smoking that at least once in its current state(after cleaning out the shank), just to experience that much "history" in a smoke.
I keep coming back to look at it in amazement. I wonder how long that took!?
If it was someone like [mention]Fr_Tom[/mention] who owned it, I'd say about a month or so. :D
Right now I am being very intentional about rotating through groups of pipes. In times past though, I have just smoked heck out of a couple of pipes. Smoked that way, they need a reaming once a week or so.

Did "Codgers of Old" have some kind of pipe occlusion competition going on or what?

I think that's the pipe smokers equivalent of a one hitter. Or maybe for when you want a quick 5 minute smoke. Haha.

Oh, there are others like it in the pile. Message me if you would like one.

This is when a retort becomes a really handy tool to have. Polio avoidance.

I named myself after that brands gold label , which is outstanding. The gold is only produced in good years , which is often enough it seems .
The key to the gold is to pop it and let breath in the open bottle for 2 hours. Its heaven on earth

The picture you posted is their " starter " . There's one in the middle which has a tan label .... and then the Gold!

Well, they certainly didn't name this after him:

I've read the archives, the Mayor seems to be a swell guy without a swell head. It's always nice to read his posts, unless he's swooning about redheads, which, it seems, he'll do at the drop of a hat.

I do have a question, though. What color is a white horse that has run through the mud?
A white horse thats run through the mud .... in georgia , wil be an orange whiteish horse and its name will be Mars
